Hahahahahaha! No, wait...you're serious...aren't you?
Since I have an 03 Cobra (bought new) and I KNOW that it does not have any tracking or crash memory computer in it I will never sell it.
Plus it may be the last car with no auto-drive crap in a few years.
DD or beaters can have all that crap in them for all I care. My beater Toyota can barely keep up with traffic as it is so no speeding tickets sent to me in the mail when I am driving that turd.
There are way bigger problems in our world/country than traffic violations.
If this goes beyond them collecting data to build a better car for the consumer, then I'll be both surprised and disgusted. Of course, maybe I shouldn't be that surprised..

I do this on my head to keep "Them" out.
Rental cars already "tattle" on drivers so that the rental car companies can charge them more $$$. I'm just waiting for the day when a car will tattle on you to the police and for speeding or other traffic violations.
Really wish I could believe the Ford exec but if the government wants info on us, they will get it one way or another.

I figured this was pretty widespread already.
Chrysler already has a similar feature where they upload all of your car's data to their corporate headquarters wirelessly as soon as you pull it into the bay. No more OBDII locks to protect you; if you take it to the dealer they WILL know what you've been doing.
Ah, progress...

Warranty claim - My air conditioner is broken
Ford - We see your GPS data and it indicates that you rapidly accelerate for 1/4 of a mile and then quickly decelerate. In addition we see this activity within 300 foot of a known drag strip. This failure was caused by racing and therefore you claim is denied regardless if its a manufacturers defect or not.

i track 1000 of my subprime customers daily with GPS. i dont track what they are doing...but if the time comes i have to repo, i go right to the car. i shut it off first tho so they cant run.
I now see that Farley at Ford had backtracked on his earlier statement and is now claiming "it ain't so". Interesting.
seems a little late to try and put that cat back in the bag
I have no issues with this because its part of the agreement and in the end its your companies car.
I have a major issue if I have a free and clear title and someone still tracks my movements, habits, etc
He can backtrack all he wants. He gave way too many details and specifics on how and what Ford was tracking to attempt to hide the facts at this point.
Lets be real the NSA has already hacked Ford or Ford has given them permission to use the database. The NSAs satellite had a moto that was painted on it showing an octopus strangling the world with the statement "nothing is beyond our reach" printed on it. That pretty much says it all...
find said GPS/Satellite radio transmitter/reciever and smash it with a hammer.Then do donuts in front of Fords corporate building. 
Keep electing the standard Demoshits and Repubtards. Vote them out or shut the **** up. All this whining about govt over reaching yet the same people continue to be voted into office. It happened under Bush and now Obama.
Why do people worry about a GPS in their car, when most of us have it right in our pocket?:nonono:
I read about a few "terrorist leaders" who found out the hard way why you do not want to use a smart phone if you do not want "others" to know where you are and what you are up to.
I am pretty sure the same applies to you when you carry and use a smart phone. If they wanted to, they could pinpoint your exact location and/or record your exact speeds and driving habits using your phone.:shrug:

Republican, democrat, it just doesn't matter anymore. Their all just puppets of big money. Elect whom you like. The results will be the same.
Please everyone dont take this out of Ford "Which I happen to sell for a living". Every car company does this now "supposedly to use the information to better there vehicle production in the future."
